Distribution
The master. Spotify, Apple, Amazon, Tidal, 150 places. Store payouts.
WANNA PLAI?
Publishing is not distribution.
Sep 4, 2026. Two copyrights. Two money pipes.
The difference
Distribution puts the recording in stores. Publishing collects the song.
Most artists only do one. That is how they leave money on the table.
Publishing
The composition. Melody and lyrics. Societies and mechanical agencies. Not the store dashboard.
Both
Creator and Pro. Same upload. Same split sheet. Same button.
The money
- Basic is free. One song for life. Distribution only. No publishing. No Boost. No withdraw.
- Creator is $14.99/mo or $149/yr. 8 distro and 8 publishing registrations a month.
- Pro is $19.99/mo or $199/yr. Unlimited plus catalog migration.
- PLAIGROUND takes none. 0% cut of royalties. Membership is the fee.
- We still deliver Fully AI even if a store will not pay.

Collect both sides.
For artists who’d rather be making the next one than reading a distribution agreement.
